Overview • Factbook • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Avian Federation of Axdel is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Cristian Alvarado with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.54 billion Axdelians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Administration, Environment, and Industry are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asceña. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Axdelian economy, worth a remarkable 1,322 trillion Red Feathers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 202,274 Red Feathers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Axdel, an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, and workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings. Crime is totally unknown. Axdel's national animal is the Colour Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Feather Brushing.

Axdel is ranked 147,479^th in the world and 5,938^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -8.49 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
